“Director John Singleton, famous for the gritty urban tales “Boyz in the Hood” and “Poetic Justice,” is attracting attention for a slightly different genre: the family drama.

Singleton, 40, produced “Illegal Tender,” the story of a mother-son bond, which opens in theaters tomorrow.

Like “Four Brothers,” the 2005 film he directed that told the story of adoptees avenging their mother’s murder, “Illegal Tender” explores the bonds of blood and friendship. “
